Roger, I appreciate you acknowledging the reality of my issue.
The "papers" articles are typical of articles that that would be nice to alter. Your idea of playing with the table width via javascript is quite innovative. I wonder how difficult that would be to do and how common is the approach. Wait... It turns out that I misread your comments at first. You in fact were suggesting that other web pages could be easily changed also. I thought you meant to change webpage that *are* so written. I don't know if I could even progammatically change ones that *are* so written. Anyhow, there is considerable insight in your post.
